Groo is an Eastern Grey kangaroo. He is often depicted in a blue and green dyed colour-scheme with a blue pouch bag,[2] but is sometimes shown in his naturalistic grey colour-scheme.[3]

Groo unofficially sees October 25 as "Groo Day", since that day is the anniversary of when he doodled the roo which would eventually become known as Groo.[4]

In late 2013, Groo was created in partial fursuit form by Shadow Arktis before they formed CritterScape. This partial roo suit was first worn at ConFurgence 2014. In 2016, the suit was given an update, having his fur shaved and aquiring a new tail, ears, and teeth.

Rupert has slowly become a truer representation of the person behind Groo and his real personality, whereas Groo (the fursona) represents the bouncy, brighter side which he wants to bring out more within his real personality.
